Do any of you remember those boxer puppets that were basically a head on a stalk with two metal levers to control punching of the arms and a bit of cloth to go over your hands as a gown.One mans trash is another mans treasure !

Re: boxing
Yeah I remember those boxing puppet things, many years ago my grandparents went on holiday to Turkey and brought me one back. I have to admit I loved the thing but looking back it actually looked a little weird, it didn't resemble a boxer at all but rather some sort of eerie-looking clown. The paint job on the face was really bad, it had clown makeup around the eyes, some sort of brimmed hat and then a really badly-painted black beard/stubble. I also recall it having a blue and grey striped shirt and a slightly odd grin across its face, it actually looked like something from that puppet master horror film to be honest.

Re: boxing
I used to love watching boxing and still do when it's not on Box Office!
My favourite boxers were John Conteh, Alan Minter, Barry McGuigan, Jim Watt, John H Stracey, Nigel Benn, Lloyd Honeyghan and Frank Bruno.
